INFORMATION DISTRIBUTION AND CONVERSION UNIT Russian patent published in 2010 - IPC B64D7/00 G06F19/00 

FIELD: physics, radio.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to onboard electronic equipment. The disclosed information distribution and conversion unit is designed for operating as a component of a distributed weapons control system and has a reception and conversion unit, a one-time command unit and a target designation processing unit, corresponding inputs and outputs which are connected to air-launched weapons. There is also a microprocessor control unit, the first input-output of which is connected to the multiplex information exchange channel of the weapons control system. Other inputs and outputs are connected to corresponding outputs and inputs of the reception and conversion unit and the one-time command unit. One of the inputs is connected to the output of the target designation processing unit. Other outputs are connected by bipolar code lines to air-launched weapons.

EFFECT: possibility of connection to the said multiplex channel, independent target designation over bipolar code lines, increased number of units with increase in the number of serviced stations without use of additional communication lines with central systems, as well as broadening of functional capabilities with regards to self-control when switching the unit, background control of analogue target designation during regular operation, autonomous operation during non-nominal onboard situations.
